2 friends walk onto the tube, sitting in silence for a little while.
“so…. you know… i’ve been having like, ugh, i dont know… but..”
Train door closes… train starts to move, disrrupting her speech.
She leans in, restarting what she was saying.
“No, ok, I’ve been thinking recently, like we’re actually so blessed, like we’re really just taking everything for…”
Her friend finally reacts, “sorry what did you say?” she shouted over the noise of the tracks, disrrupting her again.
“I was saying,” she raises her voice. “I’ve came to a realisation recently, that life is actually so meaningful, like, I used to be so jealoused of everyone around me think ugh why is do they get everything but I’m just stuck with this? But you know it’s actually not worth wasting our time thinking like that ya know, actually no one’s perfect!”
Her friend sits in silence for a few seconds, her head spinning trying to understand what she said and finally reacts.
camera zooms onto her friend’s face (trying to piece together different words such as mean? ugh? worth? shopping? clothes? shoes? and comes up with the shoes) and then pans and zooms into a girl wearing a pair of crazy (ugly) pair of shoes.
“yes! yes! I agree! I love her shoes too! I want them!”
Her friends turns to her and smiles awkwardly. She looks annoyed and confused, (animation showing her internal conflict, debating whether or not she wants to repeat herself).
She signs, “No! What I’m try to say is…” her friend now distracted, trying to check what station they are at right now. “that we should be more grateful…”
Her friend nudges her with her shoulder “it’s our stop! go!”
She signs, giving up on sharing her life epiphany.
